This angle is by far the more interesting and to me, more valuable to someone who actually plays the game. The other angle you can't pick up as much. Putting the camera in a satellite is like when I watch golf, and after the player hits the ball, the camera zooms into the ball and tries to keep it in frame. I can't tell the ball flight from that haha

yeah, from the higher angles, you can kind of tell when players put more air under the ball and when they flatten it out. this angle however, you can really tell how much air they put under the ball when the spin it deep compared to how flat they are when they go for winners.

Not the USO, but here's a court level view of a match between Laver and Connors in 1975. You really get a sense of how flat Connors used to hit the ball as well as Laver's touch and reflexes at the net.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SptdffCeVmM
